This poetgirl on Instagram says some off the wall shit.

Some of these old bitches have totally lost their mind and just spread misinformation.

This is more than mildly infuriating for me but I wasn't quite sure where else to post this lol.

Whatever, the whole point is the religion shouldn't be in schools in the first place. Get it out.

TIL that nobody in the US military that has died has never ever been Muslim.

What they don't want you to know is that muslims become immortal while in the US military.

Wrong... A simple google search shows that Muslims did indeed fight in the US revolutionary war along side other colonists

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Or you could just say the 10 commandments are part of Islam.

So we should display religious things of only the original occupiers of the land? I don't think she's going to be happy with the conclusion there.

[–] ghost9@lemmy.world 89 points 5 days ago

I for one am all for this plan. Schools would be a lot cooler if they were decorated by the local Native American tribes.

"Christians" also stole this land and genocided people who had lived here since long before they came. Those who don't like this should return to where their forefathers came from, no?

[–] scout10290@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Didn't the Christians have slaves that they brought over fight too? I'm sure some of them had different religious beliefs.

~20% of the slaves brought to America were Muslim. Several fought during the Revolutionary War including Bampett Muhamed, Yusuf ben Ali (also known as Joseph Benhaley), and Joseph Saba: https://nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stories/african-muslims-early-america

Christians fought for the land? You are talking about the genocide of native Americans? The same ones that owned slaves?... Yeah ok, I understand why YOU like them so much now...

[–] Saleh@feddit.org 26 points 4 days ago

About 20-30% of the people enslaved and deported to the US were Muslims.

The "Christians" brought Islam to North America by force.

Muslims have a long and proud history of serving this country with honor and distinction for centuries.

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 57 points 5 days ago (2 children)

The first country to recognize the US was Morocco, an overwhelmingly Muslim nation then, and before then, and now. And for that long-lasting support, real Americans suggest they don't belong here.

Yes. I have served with some.

Also, let's not forget the interpreters we had that risked their lives to help us. Many we worked to bring back to the states. They are amazing people and I would choose any interpreter that I ever worked with over my own mom. My mom was horrible btw.

I'm pretty sure there have been plenty of Jews, Muslims, Atheists, and others that have bled for the US too.

[–] breecher@sh.itjust.works 12 points 3 days ago

It is pointless to engage with that point of their argument, because the underlying premise that the 10 commandments are hung in the classroom on account of Christians dying for the US is even more wrong.

So by entering the discussion about whether Muslims have fought and died for the US, they will imply that you have accepted their underlying premise. There is no good faith arguing with fascists.

My mom once asked if my Jewish girlfriend celebrated Thanksgiving. When I scoffed, she reminded me that there weren't any Jews on the Mayflower.

I reminded her that there weren't any Catholics either.

[–] scout10290@sh.itjust.works 33 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Nice. You gave her the burrrnn. Good job. We need to really start correcting much of this type of misinformation out there when people say it one day many many more will believe it.

Lots of folks in the US don’t really have an understanding of religion as a separate thing from nationality.

They think of “being Christian” as “being like the other white people in my neighborhood growing up”. End of thought.

So drinking beer, watching football, and hating taxes are all “Christian things” to them.

So when they say “Christians — and only Christians — died for this country”, they’re 100% correct, according to their understanding of “being a Christian”. Cuz to them it basically just means “being an American”.

There’s really no way to convince them otherwise. It’s like telling someone that Velcro is really called “hook and loop”.

The Founders of this nation explicitly included Islam in their vision of the future of the republic. Freedom of religion, as they conceived it, encompassed it. Adherents of the faith were, with some exceptions, regarded as men and women who would make law-abiding, productive citizens. Far from fearing Islam, the Founders would have incorporated it into the fabric of American life.

"If God truly does exist, he more so loves the atheist who questions the world around him than the Christian who blindly follows."

50% of the Founding Fathers were agnostic or atheist. My question is: why does she hate America?

"If Muslims don't like it, they should return to their native countries!" I cry, as I rubber stamp another billion dollar check to bomb the Levant.

Are we talking about the Christians who very explicitly opposed the concept of a religious state? The ones who put that concept front and center in their Bill of Rights?

Well, it’s a secular country, and that means freedom from religion. I don’t give a shit about your Christian bullshit, and if I saw that garbage posted in my child’s school, I’d tear it down myself.

People don't read. Paraphrasing:

  • Jesus (J): "Why would you call me 'good'? Only the Father is good."

  • Muhammed (M): "Our Lord has decreed mercy upon Himself, so to anyone who commits sin out of ignorance and then repents and amends, He is Forgiving, Merciful."

  • J: "It's easier* for a camel to go through the eye of the needle than it is for a rich man to enter Heaven."

  • M: "Those who hoard gold and silver and don't spend it in the cause of God, give them news of a painful retribution."

  • J: "You have been told 'do not murder, for whoever murders will be judged for it', but I tell you anyone who is angry and insults their brother will be judged for it too."

  • M: "The righteous are those who suppress their anger and pardon the people. God loves the good doers."
